The impact of bimanual reach training with augmented position sense feedback on post-stroke upper limb somatosensory and motor impairment
Symmetrical reach training with or without augmented PF led to reduced motor impairment and benefited upper limb position matching ability by reducing APM variability. Augmenting position sense during reaching did not provide additional benefits for position matching accuracy. Advantages for unilateral movement speed and bilateral reach symmetry measures in the group that practiced without interlimb coupling may reflect specificity of practice effects due to similarity between test and training conditions for this group.
